  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Please pray for me brothers and sisters.. I have had this crippling spirit of fear attach itself to me all day, literally from the time I woke up.. Like a spirit of cold, emptiness inside, like God has left you.. My wife and I got into the worst fight I think we've had since we've been together in the whole year and a half. So much hate, disdain, anger came from her last night and she took it out on me.. I think she is just stressed out, she is working 7 days a week and all.. I have just had this spirit all day, I know that God hasn't left me because I know that He promises to never leave our forsake me but it feels like I'm cold and empty inside.. Please pray for me

Father,
Thank you for your unfailing love. Please help this dear brother who is holding fast to your promise that you are with him until the end of the age. Help him to know of your presence and the peace that surpasses all understanding. Dear Father, please cast away the evil spirit that has invaded the lives of this family. Bring his young wife to your truth, that whoever will call upon the name of your Son will be saved. We trust now in your the power of your mighty Spirit who is able to do all things. May all glory and praise be yours, in Jesus' name, amen.

Thank you everyone for your prayers.. Theyres something I was gonna tell my wife Friday, I told God I was going to do it no later than Friday night, and here Friday night comes and I have never since I have been with her have i ever seen her angrier..So I didn't say, and I'm on breaking point right now.. I felt bad for her, because she is working so , so does my mom and apparently she really strongly dislike my mom.. And i feel me too.. I felt so disheartened last night, like she hates me, she doesn't but that's how I felt. I felt she was telling me I was worthless compared to her previous husband. I really have felt, pretty much since last night, severely depressed.. And I felt like it has followed me to today, I really feel empty, like really empty.. I have asked God for forgiveness, I just really have this spirit of depression and emptiness and like I'm hated and I'm worthless hanging over me and I've had it all day.. I really just feel like total crap.. I'm trying in my walk with the Lord, I'm not slacking.. Trying not to anyway.. I have turned away from Porn, I have tried not to look at women in lust, meaning I'm not looking twice, I'm just turning my head.. And I told her a bunch of lies from the beginning of the relationship and that was literally one of the hardest things to do in my life.. I used to lie because of my , to protect myself, so exposing myself is so hard, I'm trying as hard as I can in my walk with the Lord.. Ive pretty much stopped lying all together, there is a few things left to tell my wife but I feel I will, soon, but I really am turning from sin.. I just feel terrible, i just do.. I am depressed and empty inside.. Lord please have mercy and forgive me, please remove this spirit from me in Jesus name.

Recommendations:
1-"Love and Respect" by Emerson (think he was a pastor for decades). The book is based on Scripture - Husbands LOVE your wives and wives RESPECT your husbands. Eph 5:33. Believe you would need to find out what that means individually.
2- Also, "The Five Love Languages" by Chapman.
3 - "Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:" Eph 4:26 We know a couple that agreed that they both apologize before midnight anytime they have any type of ruffle. Personally, I've found the sooner the better. Just don't hold onto any unforgiveness.

Since she's working 7 days a week, I hope that you're at least taking as much of the other responsibilities as possible.

praying, too.
